An oddity-
I was putting away my instructions for my new 2000 sets when I noticed
something VERY bizarre! I usually put my instructions in order, so I was
putting my Leo's Castle instructions away-- and thinking all this time • that it
was 6091, I got ready to put it in its place right next to 6090 (Royal • Knight's
Castle)... when I noticed something... the instructions had the number • 6098! I
did a double take, then thought maybe I had been mistaken about the number • all
along. But sure enough, the box reads 6091, and the instructions read • 6098!
Makes me wonder what number they really meant! (since 6098 is higher than • any
other of the new castle sets, and 6091 is less than a couple, despite the • fact
that Leo's Castle IS the largest of the new sets... makes me want to think
that 6098 is the right number!)

In other news, I put King Leo's Castle on the Rock Raiders baseplate just • to
see how it looks-- VERY cool. Gives the castle a rather different feel to • it...

Hey there!  Good use of a baseplate!!!
I am still waiting for King Leo's Castle to arrive in the south, I was • going
to combine it with my two 6090s and various other castle parts (love them
spiral staircases!) and use the 6091 (or 6098, depending on your • instructions)
baseplate for the gatehouse, and a 6090 baseplate for the main keep.  I • have
done some of the work on a Rock Raiders baseplate, but it looks so • sinister!
I have a second Rock Raiders baseplate (two total) and four of the Night
Lord's castle that I think will make a nice Evil Knight's castle.
The problem with the Bulls is that they have more siege engines than
invaders.  LEGO really needs to make some service packs for Royal Knights • and
Bull Invaders (sold separately!) and with NO MORE KINGS!!!!!  I have waaaay
too many gold crowns and silver greatswords.

   I am guessing there will be a mini-fig pack next year, as well as 3 or 4
new sets to go with this new theme.   Maybe for once they will put a
princess or queen in the mini-fig pack!  Maybe I am expecting too much from
the double dose of female mini-figs I got last night, but that would be
divine, wouldn't it?
